YAMAHA FX Limited SVHO
The FX Limited SVHO, Yamaha's flagship WaveRunner, combines a deep-V hull with a supercharged, mega-displacement 1.8-liter Super Vortex High Output engine that pushes it beyond 65 mph. Now sheet moulding compound (SMC) returns to the hull rather than Yamaha's lighterweight, nano-engineered construction. This adds about 40 pounds but arguably improves the boat's feel, particularly in rough water.
